It's now a shell script to be run in scripts/FAIBASE after 50-fcopy (because it parses fcopy.log) with a configuration file at the top of the files directory (which never gets fcopy-ed because fcopy is only run on etc, usr etc.) which should be self-explanatory: $initsystem systemd etc/icinga2/icinga2.conf icinga2 restart etc/icinga2/constants.conf icinga2 restart etc/icinga2/* icinga2 reload etc/default/icinga2 icinga2 restart etc/systemd/system/icinga2.service icinga2 restart usr/local/share/icinga2 icinga2 restart etc/collectd/* collectd restart (There's a built-in rule, that, for initsystem systemd, changes in etc/systemd/system/* cause a systemd daemon-reload.) For any given file, first match wins; for a daemon, restart wins over reload.
